Of the two well-known rodent models of human type 1 diabetes (the non-obese diabetic mouse and the BioBreeding rat) the mouse has become the model of choice. Here the authors re-examine the value ...

"Our experiments involved Goto-Kakizaki [GK] rats, an animal model for non-obese type 2 diabetes. We found that insulin resistance can be reduced in these animals by modulating the inflammatory ...

A Brazilian study published in the journal Nutrients suggests that fish oil can weaken insulin resistance and reduce glucose intolerance by modulating the body's inflammatory response. The ...

In results published today in the Royal Society of Chemistry journal Biomaterials Science, researchers show that the insulin-loaded gel reduces blood glucose levels over 24 hours in a diabetic-rat ...

In this study, researchers found that giving non-obese rats 2 grams of fish oil per kilogram of body weight, three times a week for eight weeks, led to a reduction in insulin resistance.
